Gel'thark was born a slave to a minor tribe subjugated to the ogres in a northern woodland area which had no name. His mother died in childbirth which for orcs was a sign that Gel'thark was a curse upon his name and his tribe and as such, during his childhood the boy was ostracized and abused. Gel'tharks father took to drinking after the death of his mate and he beat the young child every day after he came home from the quarry but Gel'thark never stopped trying to make the old fool try to love him.

One day he got the chance. His tribe had been saving scrappings of money they had made for generations so that one of their own might go free and live as a true orc should. On this day the cheiftan of the tribe announced that there would be a contest held and whoever could kill a warg and bring it's pelt to the tribe would be set free. Gel'thark, a skilled hunter and woodsman, went out looking for his freedom. Eventually he found and killed a warg with his bare hands and returned to the tribe a champion, but his father never saw this since he died from falling off some scaffolding at the quarry.

Gel was given the name of a free orc, Wargslayer, and given provisions for his journey out of the ogre lands. Before he could leave though the taskmaster for his tribe, a vicious and cruel ogre named Maltak, demanded additional payment for Gel to be free. Since the tribe couldn't come up with it, Gel was deemed to continue as a slave until further payment was acquired.

This insult enraged the tribe so much that they actually stormed the taskmasters tower in battle. Most of the tribe was killed in the assault but it bought Gel'thark enough time to escape by horseback to a nearby port and book passage on a ship to escape the lands.
